oscillating knife cutting machine

Questions you most want to know:

Q : How does this oscillating knife cutting machine actually work?

A: The machine uses a servo motor driven high frequency vibration blade that reciprocates vertically to cut flexible materials with an accuracy of ±0.2mm. Unlike laser cutting, it uses zero heat technology to ensure that no thermal deformation or edge burning occurs. This makes it ideal for heat-sensitive materials such as foam and synthetic leather.

Q : What materials can it handle?

Tested and used by customers:

  1. Rubber: EPDM, neoprene, insertion rubber (up to 10mm thickness) works great
  2. Textiles: Nylon, polyester, carbon fiber fabrics
  3. Foam: PE, EVA, EPE etc. (Thickness up to 80mm)
  4. Plastics: PVC sheet (≤10mm)
  5. Other materials: carpet/sofa cover/leather upper, etc.

Q :  How is the material fixed? Will it shift during cutting?

A: Don’t worry about this problem. The multi-zone vacuum adsorption system generates pressure across 12 independently controlled zones, ensuring material stability even during high-speed cutting (up to 150-200mm/s).

Q : I’m worried about training. Is this oscillating knife cutting machine hard to learn?

A: A: Our training program includes:

  1. Provide the machine parts assembly, startup, software installation, debugging, cutting and other steps of the document and a series of videos upon purchase
  2. Join the technical group and communicate directly with the technicians about machine problems
  3. Provide guidance through remote software (Sunlogin remotecontrol-Chinese version/or other foreign software)
  4. 95% of operators achieve proficiency within 7 days

Q : Will cuts have rough edges?

A: Most materials will have clean cutting edges after debugging the machine. If you are worried that the material is not cut cleanly, we can perform a cutting test before purchasing.

Q : What industries are using this type of machine the most?

A: We’re seeing them in automotive, apparel, packaging, and general manufacturing. If you’re working with materials that need clean, accurate cuts, this oscillating knife cutting machine adds a lot of value.

Q : How does it compare to laser/waterjet?

A: Good question! Unlike lasers or waterjets, this cutter doesn’t produce heat or burn marks, which is a big advantage for heat-sensitive materials. Through material calculation software, material waste is much lower than laser and water jet cutting, and a material utilization rate of 95% can be achieved, with lower operating costs.

Q : How much maintenance does it need?

A: Very little! Mostly, you’ll just need to replace blades and do routine checks. We’ve built it to be reliable so that downtime is minimized, letting you focus on production.

Q : Is it fast enough for large orders, or is it best for small runs?

A: The cutting speed will be different depending on the material, which will result in different daily cutting quantities. This should be measured according to your specific requirements.

Q : What software can I use with this machine?

A: It’s compatible with most popular CAD software, so you’ll have no trouble importing your designs and getting right to work. It’s flexible to match whatever software you’re used to.

Q : What safety features are included?

A: Safety is Infrared built-in with emergency stop buttons, blade guards, and software that prevents accidental starts. We keep operators in mind, ensuring it’s as safe as it is effective.
